I feel like we hit the 'jackpot' after meeting Noella and Paul! They are exceptionally caring and generous people, who are dedicated 100% to their house and pet sits. Our dogs sulked once they left. We came home to a beautifully clean house, even fresh flowers replaced and a homemade curry awaiting us, after a 24 hour journey home.

Having read their reviews booking Noela & Paul for our sit was a no brainer.
Noela's communication was quick and excellent all the way through, including kitty updates whilst we were away.
We returned home to an immaculate house, happy cats and a home cooked meal and treats - what a lovely touch đ
We wholeheartedly recommend this fab couple for your sits and would have them back like a shot if they ever wanted to pass this way again.
Thank you so much Noela & Paul - happy onward travels!

Noela and Paul very kindly accepted our request for someone to look after our 3 cats and house for a week in June. We agreed everything and as they are so professional and sought after, they kept us right as we had never done this before. To say we're pleased is an understatement.

Wow! What a joy to have Noela and Paul look after our two cats and our home and garden.
They may be very experienced Housesitters and know what pleases us hosts but we think they went way beyond what was expected!!
From the outset they were quite obviously cat lovers and during our sit Noela communicated with pictures and messages on a regular basis.

Hi Noela and Paul,
thank you so much for your care and attention to our home and animals.
Sarah cat was very content and obviously enjoyed your care of her.
The home and gardens were lovely upon our return.
Thank you also for going the extra mile with a delicious meal and other treats you left for us.
The house plant is gorgeous.
We'd be very willing to recommend you to anyone needing house sitters.
Enjoy your next travel and adventures.
Thanks again.

They left our house in a lovely state (probably better than when we left), and had even left us with a home cooked meal to come home to as well as some fresh fruit.

Our precious ragdoll cat was completely relaxed and happy on our return - we've never seen him like that.

We feel very lucky to have had them here, and would not hesitate to book them again. Consider yourselves lucky if you get them as your house sitters!

Noela and Paul came to meet us before the sit, and to go for a walk with Bramble. They gave us great confidence & allowed us to go away feeling happy that our pets would be safe and well cared for.
We had regular updates with photos and came home to a clean and tidy house. They also left us flowers, fruit, and a curry, which was delicious.
Noela and Paul are genuine and lovely people, and we feel honoured to have had them sit for us.
I highly recommend them to others.

Have just returned from a lovely relaxing break in Madeira, leaving our three much loved rescue dogs and our home in the care of Noela and Paul. Although are dogs are generally well behaved, looking after three is no mean feat, and we returned home to three chilled and happy dogs.

Noela and Paul came early so we could give them a really good handover and stayed late when we arrived back for a debrief. Can thoroughly recommend Noela and Paul...you can go away with total confidence.

Noela and Paul were great housesitters and looked after everything beautifully. Even came home to a cooked meal and Noela had very kindly planted some new vegies for us and left a treat for the kids. Animals were well taken care off. Would love to have them back anytime

Noela and Paul are the house sitters from heaven!
They are lovely people and communication was easy. Our cats and chickens were well cared for and relaxed. Our house was immaculate when we returned and they did heaps of extras off their own bat which was most appreciated. They are very experienced and we recommend them to anyone.

Noela and Paul house sat for us for month (Apr/May 18).
They are a nice couple who treat house sitting professionally and easily coped with our 'first time' worries. Our Border Collies bonded well and were sorry to see them go at the end of the sit. The chicken and garden both enjoyed the upgraded care in our absence, whilst the house was in immaculate condition.
They are welcome back anytime and we would thoroughly recommend them as Sitters..

Noella & Paul did a great job looking after our property and 'farmily' for approx. 5 days. Communication was good - we Skyped prior which was really helpful! They have a very good understanding of animals and common sense approach to everything. We appreciated that they were keen to stick to routines for the pets' sake and seemed to truly love animals. We would recommend them. Glad to have been part of their adventure!

Having strangers looking after your property and dearly loved animals was something we were quite nervous about, yet reading all the references that Noela and Paul had definitely made the decision easier. Yet of course we were still a bit nervous about it all. We needn't have worried. Noela and Paul are Gods in our book. They were absolutely amazing!

Yet of course we were still a bit nervous about it all. We needn't have worried. Noela and Paul are Gods in our book. They were absolutely amazing! We'd never left the dogs, cats, chooks and horse for so long before. They sent us daily updates and photos. When we returned the dogs weren't even that pleased to see us (!) they were just like, oh your home. Usually when we go away even for a few hours it's mayhem when we return, like we've been gone for years. Our very neurotic fox terrier whom we were most concerned about totally attached himself to Noela and didn't even acknowledge us on our return. His whole existence revolved around Noela. Now this a 12yr old dog with serious trust issues so that says a great deal about Noela and Paul. They carried on the training of our 5-month-old German Shepherd puppy, he learned a few new things which was so cool to see on our return. And our 7yr old German Shepherd worshiped them both. The house was immaculatey clean, our veggie gardens replanted due to all the rain and lawns mown. We can't speak more highly of Noela and Paul. If we could kidnap them and have them forever we would. We totally recommend Noela and Paul!

Amazing housesitters - the animals adored them and didn't even seem to know that we weren't there. We loved spending time with them. So nice to come home to a happy house with extremely happy animals. Welcome back anytime.

We would thoroughly recommend Noela & Paul for peace of mind for your home and pets whilst you are away. They looked after our 'special' cat, 5 hens, tiddlers, home and garden for 10 days in early June. Great communication before the sit, answered questions and provided details promptly which reassured us everything would be in good hands. Not phased by an untimely sick 'chick' who needed a lot of attention and was handled in a practical and caring manner. Happy to indulge our wild bird feeding ...

Great communication before the sit, answered questions and provided details promptly which reassured us everything would be in good hands. Not phased by an untimely sick 'chick' who needed a lot of attention and was handled in a practical and caring manner. Happy to indulge our wild bird feeding regime and tended to the garden as if it were their own. Kept in touch whilst we were away so we knew everything was fine but not in an intrusive manner. Honestly think the house was cleaner when we got back than when we left, the lawn was cut and garden blooming, a lovely meal had been prepared for us after our journey home and we were left treats! As for the cat, well everyone falls for her and she was blissfully indifferent to our return, which is always a good thing for her, if a little ego deflating for us! Very luck to have booked them for a second sit later in the summer.

Noela and Paul did a three week housesit for us and took great care of all our pets and the house. We were able to completely relax away from home knowing that we had two very capable people in charge of things back home! Many thanks to them both and we have no hesitation in strongly recommending them as housesitters.

They began with a 'meet n greet' visit before we left, a great way to introduce themselves not only to us but our dog.

While we were away we received texts every few days with updates, their communication was brilliant. On our return they gave us a yummy dinner, just the thing after a long day's travel. They also had left the whole place totally immaculate, had more than maintained the garden and had even fixed things that we hadn't got round to. Rosie was in great shape on our return, fit and healthy and had obviously bonded really well with them both. We would highly recommend this couple to anyone who was looking for dedicated, totally honest and reliable housesitters
